Wu-Tang Plot the Future
« on: September 01, 2003, 06:58:49 PM »
Is Wu-Tang Clan over? "It's on ice, really," says Wu leader RZA. Despite breakup rumors, Wu may eventually come back someday. "When it's time to rock, I think everybody's down," RZA says. In the meantime, bonds among the Staten Island, New York, rap crew are strong: Most of the Clan MCs are helping out with one another's solo discs because, as Method Man puts it, they're "Wu for life."
What's going on with Wu-Tang Clan Masta Killa
He's the only Wu-Tanger to never release a solo album -- but that's about to change. Masta Killa will soon drop No Said Date, which RZA calls "a crazy classic -- completely raw. He's the motherfucker right now."

Raekwon
A new Raekwon effort -- The Lex Diamond Story -- is expected to come out later this year.

Method Man
Wu-Tang's own Michael Jordan has completed roles in Scary Movie 3 and My Baby's Mama, and will appear in a B-boy remake of Airplane! next year; his new album, Tical O: The Prequel, is slated for release on October 28th. RZA produced two of the tracks.

Cappadonna
He's currently driving a cab on Long Island and working on a solo album.

RZA
Wu's mastermind produced the soundtrack to Quentin Tarantino's Kill Bill, due out October 10th. "Me and Quentin hooked up because kung-fu movies are our joy of life," RZA says. His solo album Birth of a Prince is out now, as is an import-only CD, The World According to RZA, featuring collaborations with European rappers. "You don't understand what they're saying, but you can hear the flow in their voice," he says.

Ghostface Killah
"He's the greatest MC ever," according to RZA. In addition to appearing on Mark Ronson's hot summer single "Ooo Wee," the Wu's most mysterious man is recording an album, due out next year.

Inspectah Deck
Wu-Tang's secret weapon -- his verse was the germ behind their breakout hit "C.R.E.A.M." -- Deck released the soulful, socially conscious The Movement earlier this year, garnering good underground buzz.

U-God
"I can't really speak on U-God because I haven't seen him a lot, but we're planning on hooking up and kicking it," RZA says. "I know that when that iron flag goes up in the air, he'll be there."

Genius/GZA
According to RZA, Wu-Tang's second-in-command has been out of commission due to the loss of his mother a couple of months ago. GZA is working on a Wu-Tang DVD, featuring unreleased footage.

Dirt McGirt (a.k.a. Ol' Dirty Bastard)
"He's back and doing better than a lot of people who've been through what he's been through," says RZA. Wu-Tang's craziest member has signed to Jay-Z's Roc-A-Fella label for his new album, due out later this year. Guest stars tentatively include RZA, the Neptunes, Ghostface Killah, Mariah Carey, Ludacris and, er, Posh Spice.

Wu-Tang Clan are not from the West Coast

Most hip-hop is now keyboard driven, because the majority of hip-hop workstations have loops and patches that enable somebody with marginal skills to put tracks together,...

Unfortunately, most hip-hop artists gravitated towards the path of least resistance by relying on these pre-set patches. As a result, electric guitar and real musicians became devalued, and a lot of hip-hop now sounds the same.

I thought a few of them were working on joint albums? I remember hearing about a Inspectah Deck/Gza joint LP and being hyped for it, since then they've released solos each and not mentioned there joint LP. And apart from his verse on Ice Cream, Cap has always been wack.
Charlie, lost his life right in front of the party...

How can anyone say that after Winter Warz

Cappa was always one of my fav's in Wu fam

ODB clone? WHat the fuck is u listening to I never heard Cappa sing or spit like ODB

Go listen to some of his shit like

For Heavens Sake, Ice Cream, Winter Warz

go listen to the flow he is amazing

heres some lyrics for yall

Verse Three: Cappadonna

Yo, yo, this is Beirut
Try to comprehend check out my new suit
Gods blend aim take fire pure destruction
Dissapear from here, my year, drop the stupid LP's everywhere
Fallin out the sky tall sniper
Raps by Cappadonna hit the countryside
Poetry whirlpool, RZA and True collide
We produce article exception to the rule
We the black men that struck oil, the hardboiled
Cats that made that Watergate thing go spoiled
The heavy-handed, locked down stranged with Cyrus
Wu Pirates, sneak inside the club, low eyes
Low down dirty, twelve thirty, night time crawlers
Off-the-wallers, basketball gun brawlers
Smoked out throw both fists for nine-seven
Slang reverand, put the best work in

Yo, I seen you at the five and dime wastin your time
Oh you shine, I'm lookin at your ass from behind
You walked by smellin like watermelon
You might make me a felon, my eyeballs swellin
My nuts start yellin, excuse my prick
Wanna have a talk with you, I'm sick
My medicine is can I walk with you, fantasy
After that we can cheat, laid on the bed
Handcuffed with hard meat, long stroke smackin
Smack it then broke, nothin can't stop my
continous poke, compound
Porno flick music, Daddy came with it when I wrote it

I twist darts from the heart, tried and true
Loop my voice on the LP, martini on the slang rocks
Certified chatterbox, vocabulary 'Donna talkin
Tell your story walkin
Take cover kid, what?  Run for your brother, kid
Run for your team, and your six camp rhyme groupies
So I can squeeze with the advantage, and get wasted
My deadly notes reigns supreme
Your fort is basic compared to mine
Domino effect, arts and crafts
Paragraphs contain cyanide
Take a free ride on my dart, I got the fashion
catalogues for all y'all to all praise to the Gods

My devastatin hot '97 Mentality
Keep me on point for my four-digit salary
Heavyweight lyric never lost one calorie
I'm soon to be seen, on the TV screen
Gambino Cappacino to the Afro Sheen
Stay black, where I'm at, high road to rap council
Splash love to Wu in a orderly tonsil
Never limit to the diction, cause chaos to mixin
Brutalize a sound check, ripple through the intermission
Rap's under siege, held tight like a squeeze
Forced in the world 'Donna nuclear freeze
Through the damage to the wannabe Flipmode and Def Squad
Ruckus a whirlpool in the rap entourage
If you dare to test thirty-six, chambers of strangers
My word of mouth it's all real wigs might peel
Livin large and in charge branch out Bon Voyage
Twenty-four diamond government named God
Alias Daryl Hill bring thugs back to kill
Circle around my son, Daryl Jr. never eatin large
Auntie Dauntie sixteen holdin me down
AIDS of rap music may be contagious to sound
Verbal the slang pushed back to create pronoun
Method forcin J-Love to Bring the Pain from underground
Realizin food for thought is self-compromisin
Shaolin cut the crack into a triple-O sizin
Blue do what he do to keep that currency risin
Hopin I catch a deal so we can catch a full wheel
Instead of catchin bodies, niggaz not keepin it real
Dirtball niggaz that steal cake from stores
That's my type of niggaz I be wantin on my tours
Can't help it, my styles stay fat like Roseanne
Ruckus in the square I stay rough like the Clan
Panther on my arm, pen and pad in my hand
Punk motherfuckers better beware of the Shaolin
Defy interactive project Children of the Corn
Gats and my man keep em bustin till he's gone
Style so ancient it sparks just like the unicorn
'Donna come through everyday my uniform
changes and switches, I came to make ladies out of bitches
Crackhead niggaz get stitches
So what up with that kid, danger when I attack kid
Watch how the slang hits you, just like the fat kid
Form another pyramid, look how we slid
All over Park Hill, Stapleton politic
on a twenty dollar bill all in it together
You can't fuck with the stormy weather, yaknahmean?

You heard of the rasp before but kept waitin
for the sun of song, I keep dancehalls strong
Beats never worthy of my cause, I prolong
Extravangza, time sits still
No propoganda, be wary of the skill
As I bring forth the music, make love to your eardrum
Dedicated to rap nigga beware of the fearsome
Lebanon Don, Malcolm X beat threat
CD massacre, murder to cassette
I blow the shop up, you ain't seen nuttin yet
One man ran, tryin to get away from it
Put your bifocal on, watch me a-cometh
into your chamber like Freddy enter dream
Discombumberate your technique and your scheme
Four course applause, like a black dat to dat
You're stuck on stupid like I'm stuck on the map
Nowhere to go except next show bro
Entertainin motherfuckers can't stop O
in battlin, you don't want me to start tattlin
All upon the stage cause y'all snakes keep rattlin
Bitch, you ain't got nothin on the rich
Every other day my whole dress code switch
So just in case you want to clock me like Sherry
All y'all crab bitches ain't got to worry
Can't get a nigga like Don dime a dozen
Even if I'm smoked out I can't be scoped out
I'm too ill, I represent Park Hill
See my face on the twenty dollar bill
Cash it in, and get ten dollars back
The fat LP with Cappachino on the wax
Pass it in your think, put valve up to twelve
Put all the other LP's back on the shelf
And smoke a blunt, and dial 9-1-7
1-6-0-4-9-3-11
And you could get long dick hip-hop affection
I damage any MC who step in my direction
I'm Staten Island's best son fuck what you heard
Niggaz still talkin that shit is absurd
My repotoire, is U.S.S.R.
P.L.O. style got thrown out the car
and ran over, by the Method Man jeep
Divine can't define my style is so deep
like pussy, my low cut fade stay bushy
like a porcupine, I part backs like a spine
Cut you like a blunt and reconstruct your design
I know you want to diss me, but I can read your mind
Cuz you weak in the knees, like SWV
Tryin to get a title like Wu Killa Bee
Kid change your habit, you know I'm friends with the Abbott
Me and RZA ridin name printed in the tablet
under vets, we paid our debts for mad years
Hibernate the sound, and now we out like beers
and blunt power, born physically power speakin
The truth in the song be the pro-black teachin

man i could keep goin & goin

Dont sleep on Cappa
